Austin, Texas (AP) - The state’s highest criminal court rejected convicted killer Karla Faye Tucker’s bid for clemency, to keep from becoming the first woman executed in Texas since the US Civil War. The Court of Criminal Appeals on Wednesday turned aside her argument that the state’s clemency process is unconstitutional.
Ms. Tucker, who is scheduled to die Tuesday by lethal injection, has asked the board of Pardons and Paroles to commute her sentence to life in prison. The board can deny her request or forward a recommendation to Gov. George W. Bush.
Ms. Tucker, 38, was condemned for murdering a man and woman with a pickaxe during a 1983 break-in. She has since insisted she found God behind bars and would be content spending the rest of her life in prison doing his work for the rehabilitation of young criminals.
In interviews organized by her prison-minister husband, Dana Brown, she insists she’s a new person. “We all have the ability, after we’ve done something horrible, to make a change for the good,” Ms. Tucker said earnestly on CBS television. “I’m so far removed from the person I used to be out there. For me, what’s weird is thinking back on some of the things I used to do, and thinking, ‘I did that?’”
A spokeswoman for Christian Coalition founder Pat Robertson said Wednesday his 700 Club television program will broadcast the last prison interview with Ms. Tuckers on the day she’s scheduled to be executed. Robertson, who supports the death penalty, has said Ms. Tucker should be spared to continue preaching the word of the Lord to fellow inmates. The interview was conducted on Tuesday.
“She feels very strongly about what the Lord has done to change her life,” said Robertson’s spokeswoman, Patty Silverman. “She wanted to be sure that the message of what God did in her life got out.”
Texas last executed a woman in 1863, when Chipita Rodriguez was hanged for the murder of a horse trader. The only woman executed in the United States since the Supreme Court allowed capital punishment to resume in 1976 was Velma Barfield. She died by injection in North Carolina in 1984 for poisoning her boyfriend.
